Rapoport inquired if he'd missed any calls from Irsay.

The best and worst moments of Frank Reich's time as Colts coach.

Doyel said that if Frank Reich had to leave, so would Chris.

He denied that he had been asked to join the coaching staff. The check is going to have to be very large if Jeff wants to extend the invite. In the middle of the season, he won't have that.

Saturday is loved by people in Indianapolis.

Pat McAfee is on the show.

He was a captain in the locker room and in the league as a whole. 13 years ago he walked up to the table and said "Let's put our swords down." We need to get a deal done here for the good of the league and our fans. Saturday has been on TV. He is very handsome. He's fun to be around. He's lost a lot of weight and looks very different. He has beautiful blue eyes. In Indianapolis, he's beloved.

Irsay had a decision-making process.

Jim Irsay might have reached out to the quarterback. Are you interested in coaching, brother? It's not possible for me to do that. He reached out to someone who was in town for the ring of honor. He said he wasn't going to coach. Are you interested in coaching Freeney? He said he had to do 15-20 golf rounds. Are you referring to Robert Mathis? I am not sure if it is time for me. Are you interested in coaching? I sent an email to everyone in the Ring of Honor. Is anyone interested in joining us here? Like Jeff Saturday. The high school season came to an end. I don't have anything to do. I'm going to come in there.

He said he was excited for Saturday.

I'm happy for him. Let's get going. I was not sure what they were going to do. He has been a head coach before. He is the first year as the defense coordinators. He might be the head coach. Ventrone has had a lot of success He was thought to be going to be the head coach by people. Jim Irsay said that they were thinking outside of the box and outside of the team. Something from the past is a staple of greatness. Let's get Jeff back. I think that's nice. I wish you good luck out there. Perhaps he will suit up as well.

The language is salty so be prepared before you start.
